Package Description:
You've heard that networking is the best way to land a job, but what if you dislike promoting yourself? Maybe networking sounds like too much effort and involves faking enthusiasm? Maybe you feel too introverted to be good at networking. Or you're just wondering, how do you even get started? The truth is that networking can be natural, authentic, pain-free, and even enjoyable (really!). As a networking expert and true believer in the potential of networking for everyone, I will teach you the skills and strategies behind networking for career exploration as well as targeted networking for job search. You will learn and practice informational interviews (coffee chats), work on your elevator pitch and strategic personal branding, and learn how to craft a networking approach and plan that works for you and where you want your career to go. This coaching package is perfect for early-career professionals and mid-career professionals looking to master networking in service of their career aims. This 6 (six) coaching session package includes six 60-minute 1-on-1 sessions that will be delivered over Zoom. You will also receive access to my exclusive career knowledge videos that share skills related to what we are covering. I will be available to answer questions through email or your messaging platform of choice within 24 hours.

In your career, there are no easy and straightforward answers about how you should land that job or to find a field that you're going to thrive in. As you go through your career, you will always be changing, developing, and learning. A career coach is someone who can go with you on that journey, offering a personalized, action-oriented, and non-judgmental perspective to help you reflect on and achieve your career goals, no matter where you want to go. A career coach can help you define your desired goals, help you articulate when you've achieved them, explore thinking, resources and strategies around making them happen, and reflect on the kind of person you want to become through achieving these goals. With expert knowledge in careers, I will guide you in exploring careers, developing your career, and using job search tools and frameworks. With a coaching mindset, I will help you develop your ability to be a self-aware, self-directed learner in your professional life. You won't always have a coach working with you, or even a professor, mentor, or friend looking out for you in the working world. How will you make career decisions? Set goals? Execute plans? Understand your own priorities? Our end goal will be for you to feel confident because you know you have what it takes to figure it out on your own.
